The Hess Truck goes with Energizer batteries like chocolate goes with peanut butter -- absolutely inseparable

And while we are making our wishlist... MORE CLOTH SEAT options on higher trim cars. They don’t all have to be as cool as the Clark Plaid on the GTI but cloth seats rock. They aren’t as cold or hot as leather, they don’t crack and split to make five-year-old car look like someone died in the driver’s seat, and they…

If your license is valid to drive in New York City or LA, then you need to know how to drive in traffic.

OK, never mind. You might have mentioned Franz Ferdinand.

It’s a subtle difference, but it’s definitely a sign of the basest sense of maturity. They did learn and they did change. Just not a lot and not toward their obvious polar opposite.

Get Elon to build a tunnel for it

Is the robot going to store the meat at room temperature, so I can get the trademark Chipotle aftereffects?

John Henry was the ultimate quiet quitter.

Now the man that invented the robot
Thought he was mighty fine
But John Henry made fifteen bowls
The steam drill only made nine, Lord, Lord
The robot only made nine

Looks like someone finally cashed in their Pepsi points. 

One of the more shocking things about Starfield’s long development is all the old interface quirks that were odd choices way back in 2005 are still very much present in this game, nearly 20 years later. For example, how the hell has Bethesda not figured out inventory management yet? It’s still a damn nightmare…

Wait, the Cybertruck comes with hubcaps? LOL 

A literal piece of the truck flew off - with no impact - in heavy traffic and either hitting or nearly missing multiple cars. This is not helping Tesla’s already spotty record of build quality.

And no clear shot of the front end afterward, either.

I worked as a valet in college for 3 years. It’s really not that hard once you learn the technique. it allowed us to jump into any car and park it very quickly by backing in without adjusting the seat or the steering wheel. only occasionally we’d adjust a passenger mirror since that was the primary tool used when…

I found the main quest writing to be almost goofy. Which is weird, because almost all side quests I’ve come across are just so much better. Maybe the main quest writing got rewritten and edited a thousand times by people who care too much. Where a lot of the side quests were just written by people who had good ideas…

Yeah, same, although 55 hours in. I did start enjoying the game more once I figured out more of the systems and how things worked, but it feels like a game that is just above average, and yet I can’t put it down. Most of what has me hooked is probably the loot hunt and ship/gun/gear upgrading.

“Todd Howard says it’s all about making planet exploration an “experience.”

Got about 55 hours in now. The main ‘experience’ I have walking towards unexplored waypoints on planets is boredom and annoyance as I sometimes need to wait for my stamina/oxygen to replenish before I can sprint again. And as far as jetpacks…

Acela isn’t primarily meant for one-off tourist runs. Commuting via Acela, saving half an hour each run means you save 50 hours a year. And you don’t have to drive, which means you aren’t being stressed out by idiot traffic and can just relax or, if you must, work on the way in and out. You also don’t have to figure…

Pork roll - I mean, Taylor ham - is firmer and less gelatinous than Spam, a little spicier, probably saltier. But if you are in a part of the country where pork roll isn’t available, Spam is an ok substitute. When I worked in downtown Chicago, after not having pork roll for years and years, I learned that a Jersey…
